KITAARSPELER
D.J.Opperman
Die klank verklik my vreugde en verdriet,
ek vra wat elke ding my snare bied;
sal alles doen en selfs verraai
net dat 'n nuwe deuntjie in my draai.
Ag Heer, vergewe my die sondes van die lied.

A constant theme in D. J. Opperman's later
work is about "die sondes van die lied"
(the sins of the song.) To him it is clear that
the poet very often, in order to write a good
poem, will say things that are not truthful or
true to his personal beliefs. It is to illustrate
this theme that Opperman wrote the poignant
very short poem "Die kitaarspeler."
